SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    NASA intends to continue an information collection associated with 
the Women in STEM Aerospace Scholars (WISH) and NASA High School 
Aerospace Scholars (NHAS) projects. These projects are aligned with 
NASA's Strategic Goal 6, which is to share NASA with the public, 
educators, and students to provide opportunities to participate in our 
mission, foster innovation and contribute to a strong National economy. 
The Women in STEM High School Aerospace Scholars (WISH) project was 
piloted in FY2011 and expanded to include NASA High School Aerospace 
Scholars (NHAS) in FY2012. The NHAS/WISH will continue to provide 
opportunities for high school juniors to participate in STEM education 
engagement activities that use NASA unique assets and content. NHAS/
WISH provides an interactive, online learning experience for high 
school juniors across the United States. Students apply voluntarily to 
be considered for this opportunity. This information collection 
consists of an online application form for completion by high school 
student applicants. The application process is intended to identify 
interested, qualified applicants for participation in a multiple-month, 
on-line curriculum delivery and, for those who successfully complete 
the on-line curriculum, in a one-week experience at a specific NASA 
site.
